About Crown at Robinson
Crown at Robinson is a 19-storey freehold commercial building at 140 Robinson Road in Singapore's central business district (District 1). It was developed by Wywy Development Pte Ltd, part of the Wywy Group, which gives the completion year as 2018. The building has one basement, restaurant and shop units on the lower levels, and strata offices above. The developer lists 94 units in total: 86 offices and 8 restaurant or retail units, with offices ranging from about 590 to 1,150 sq ft.
Wywy describes the design as Art Deco in style, with an ornate glass-and-steel entrance. Shared spaces include a sky gallery and pavilion with a pool on level 6, and a landscaped sky terrace on level 18. The developer reports the project as fully sold, and units are now in the hands of individual strata owners.
Interesting facts
The building replaced The Chow House, an older office block that Wywy Group bought in 2010 for $101 million.
In October 2021 the Business Times reported a deal of nearly $260 million for the strata units in the building, covering around 70,700 sq ft of space, or about $3,650 per sq ft.
Small offices here can be combined. The developer says units on a floor may be amalgamated to nearly 6,800 sq ft.
Robinson Road stands on land reclaimed from Telok Ayer Bay in 1879. This relates to the street rather than the building.

Tanjong Pagar MRT (East-West Line) is about four minutes' walk. Shenton Way MRT (Thomson-East Coast Line) and Telok Ayer MRT (Downtown Line) are roughly five to seven minutes away.
